Anyone know what kind of O lines the Vikings had last year and the Raiders are likely to have this year. Because if Darnold comes here i'm guessing it could be an unpleasant transition for him. And for Geno it could be a pleasant one.
I just looked it up and PFF had the Vikings 13th, Raiders 19th,and Seattle 29th

Or DK wanted a trade because he knew Geno was leaving. Not that he loves Geno necessarily, but he might not want Howell or some rookie QB or the general mediocrity that's likely ahead.
Bingo.
No way. DK is a racist and wanted a white QB. lol

I am thinking they might use all the new cap space and draft pick to upgrade the O Line.

Life with Darnald sounds pretty exciting
. The Vikings had a chance to earn the No. 1 seed in the NFC, but were blown out 31-9. As a result, Minnesota had to settle for being a Wild Card team, where they were also blown out 27-9 by the Rams. In those two games, Darnold completed 43-of-81 of his passes for only 411 yards, one touchdown and one interception. He was also sacked an astonishing 11 times, including nine by the Rams.

Spotrac is estimating a potential contract for Darnold would likely pay him roughly $40 million per year. A hefty investment to give a player with literally only one good season to show for it, and it's not like Darnold will still have offensive guru Kevin O'Connell calling his plays anymore. Additionally, Darnold would also be playing behind a considerably worse offensive line and if Seattle does end up trading DK Metcalf he will have less weapons than he did in Minnesota

I feel like Darnold would be a mistake. A lateral move at best.

Agree - get someone cheaper for a year or two and draft a QB now. If we get Darnold then that means we'll be in on the other FA WR's otherwise what's the point?
